Jaromir Jagr moved into a tie with Hall of Famer Luc Robitaille for 10th on the all-time goal-scoring list with his NHL-record 17th overtime goal when he connected 1:46 into the extra period Wednesday night to give the Dallas Stars a 3-2 victory against the host Edmonton Oilers.

Jagr picked up the rebound of Jamie Benn's shot in the corner to the left of Edmonton goaltender Devan Dubnyk. He curled his way around defenseman Ryan Whitney, moved into the lower right circle and ripped a low wrister past Dubnyk's glove for his 668th career goal and third of the season.

Kari Lehtonen made 27 saves for the Stars, who've had nine of their games decided by one goal. Dubnyk stopped 25 shots for Edmonton, which lost in overtime for the second time in three days. The Oilers have had six of their 10 games go past regulation.

Edmonton trailed 2-1 after two periods but tied the score 7:38 into the third on a power-play goal by rookie defenseman Jeff Schultz. He stepped into a straightaway one-timer from 55 feet and blew a slap shot past Lehtonen for his third of the season.

Ducks 3, Avalance 0:

Viktor Fasth stopped 31 shots for his first NHL shutout and Francois Beauchemin scored in his 500th career game, lifting surging Anaheim to a win in Colorado. ... Sheldon Souray and Saku Koivu each added a goal and an assist for the Ducks, who won their fourth straight game.

Bruins 2, Canadiens 1:

Linemates Tyler Seguin and David Krejci scored in the opening 2:05 of the third period, helping visiting Boston rally to victory. ... The win moved the Bruins (7-1-1) into sole possession of first place in the Northeast Division and kept Montreal (6-3-0) from taking over the division lead.

Wild shakeup:

Minnesota demoted former Sharks winger Dany Heatley from their much-hyped top line, where he was playing with captain Mikko Koivu and offseason free-agent-signing Zach Parise. ... Heatley scored four goals and six points in the first five games this season, but none in the past four. He'll be replaced on the top line by Charlie Coyle, the Sharks' first-round pick in 2010.
